IMPROVEMENT IN CAKE-FANS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 140,619, dated July 8, 1873; application filed May 24, 1873.

To all whomit may concern.-

Be it known that 1, JOHN B. FIRTH, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State -of N 'ew York, have invented a new and useful Improvement iuCake-Pans on Frames, of which the following is a specification:

Figure l'is a detail section taken through the line m 00, Fig. 2, of a frame containing two pans, one being shown as secured in place and the other as ready for securing. Fig. 2 is atop View of the same.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

My invention has for its object to furnish cake-pans on frames, in which the pans shall be secured in place firmly and neatly, and in such a way that they can be conveniently cleaned and washed, and that they will not be lit ble to become loose. The invention consists in a cluster of cake-pans secured to their frame, as hereinafter described and pointed out in the claim.

A represents the frame or plate, to which the pans B are to be secured. In the plate A are formed as many holes as it is designed to have pans B attached to it. These holes are made a little smaller than the upper part o the pans B, and are formed with an upwardlyprojeoting burr or narrow flange, a, as shown in Fig. 1. The pans'B are formed with their edges 1) turned over as shown in Fig. 1, but

not closed down.

As thus prepared, the pansB are placed in the holes of the frame A, and are pressed down into UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.-

said holes. As the pans B are pressed down the,

flange a enters the cavity of the flange b, and is forced outward, so that the said flange b may enfold its edge, and the two flanges are closed down upon each other and upon the body of the frame A, the pans B being thus double-seamed to the frame A.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patcut- The cluster of cake-pans 13, connected to the frame A by the flanges a and turned edges 1), as and for the purpose described.

JOHN FIRTH.
